Summer Essentials

It was a beautiful Sunny day and a good opportunity to try out the new and improved Bluelizardsunscreen Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion which is a nice summer essential!

It is fragrance-free, water resistant and intended for all skin types especially sensitive skin. I love the smart cap technology that allows the transparent cap to change to blue when exposed to UV light which serves as a reminder to apply your sunscreen to stay protected.

The texture feels smooth, mid weight texture with a slight runny texture. It goes on smoothly, tried blending it in but still leaves a slight cast on my skin tone

Leaves a bluish white cast

I received this free to review. I was excited as I figured an Australian brand would make good sunscreen. This seemed to work ok, but I found it hard to rub in. And it left a bluish white cast all over. I’m pretty fair and it was noticeable. This would be bad for people with dark skin tones.

Effective but leaves a white cast.

I have a warm medium skin tone and it's been a challenge finding sunscreens that don't leave a white residue on application. I had hopes for this, but unfortunately, it didn't work for me.

Pros:
✓Not too heavy, or oily - therefore doesn't feel too greasy on your skin
✓Easy application
✓Suitable for sensitive skin - speaking as someone who is acne prone, has combination skin, and dark spots.
✓Fragrance free

Cons:
✖️ Paste like texture - it is thick & not fluid smooth like other products (not sure if it's due to "minerals")
✖️ Leaves a white residue - I hate getting a "white-washed" effect and no amount of foundation could fix it. The worst part? It stays on for hours.. which might be good if that means the sunscreen protects for long? Not sure..

Overall, while I'm sure it's effective, it might be better suited to light skin (pale) tones maybe. If you're heavy on the melanin, I wouldn't recommend this. Sorry.

Blue Lizard SPF 50 Sensitive

I do not mind this product but it is not my favourite sunscreen. It didn’t irritate or bother my skin at all but did leave a noticeable white cast on my skin

Good, but

Good Protection, but a Bit Heavy and Leaves a White Cast
I’ve been using Blue Lizard Sensitive SPF 50 for a few weeks now. On the plus side, it offers solid sun protection and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin, which is a big win. I also appreciate that it’s free from harsh chemicals and fragrances.

However, it’s quite thick and takes a while to rub in. It leaves a noticeable white cast, especially if you have a darker skin tone, which makes it less ideal for daily use on the face. It also feels a bit greasy in hot weather.

Overall, it’s a dependable sunscreen for full sun days, especially if you’re outside for long periods, but not my favorite for everyday wear.

Matte finish & Little white cast

I just revived this product from Butterly for testing purposes. I love mineral sunscreen as my skin doesn't like chemical ones.
I love that the formula is creamy and has thick consistency.
With mineral sunscreen there is always gonna be little bit white cast specially on melanin skin types. But I am impressed how little the white cast I noticed on my brown skin tone. I would only use this for body not my face . I believe this would be difficult to blend and put on the face without looking like casper.
I love that it's fragrance free non-creasy formula but gives you glowy effect on the skin right after you blend it and dries down completely matte and doesn’t feel heavy or sticky on the skin.
It has spf 50+, which is the perfect amount of protection you need from UVA/UVB rays. I prefer using non -chemicals sunscreens personally as they sit on your skin and actually block the harmful lights.
I would recommend this if your're not worry about little white cast and have sensitive skin .

Whitecast

It left a white cast and doesn’t blend in well. It also have me a stingy feel. It will be a good one to wear for the skin but regardless I still find the white cast disturbing

Ok Sunscreen

Thicker feeling sunscreen which dries a little greasy on the skin. I liked that it was unscented and safe for sensitive skin while having a higher SPF. Leaves a bit of a white cast after rubbing it in. I had to powder my face afterwards to get rid of the shiny finish it leaves. Just ok.

Good for the body

It’s perfect for the body and long beach days, but for the face, the white cast is real and quite thick. I do like it's good for sensitive skin and waterproof though.

I didn't love it and I didn't hate it!

I am a fan of the Blue Lizard brand having tried both the spray and stick sunscreens.
In general, I don't like mineral sunscreens because they are messy to apply, clog the pores and leave an awful white cast.
This sunscreen has a thick texture and did unfortunately a white cast. I liked that it had a high SPF (50), didn't irritate my skin, and contains soothing aloe vera.
